The Supreme Sword God

The 10 Heavenly Monarch

Mo Xun smiled "So senior wants to head for King City, it seems like we have a destiny, we will also head for King City"

Xu Tian nodded "Alright, I'll leave with you guys"

"Let's senior" Mu Xun then instructed the two Martial Lords to immediately prepare and quickly they then immediately prepared.

Inside the carriage was Xu Tian with Mo Xun, they were facing off but Xu Tian was wearing a mask and only his eyes were visible.

Soon they then set off towards King City quickly and perhaps the next day they had already reached King City.

"Oh yes senior, are you the first time to the King's City?" Mo Xun asked as he sipped tea casually.

"Right, I'm a traveler from the east who wants to experience the west"

Mo Xun nodded lightly 'It looks like this senior is probably a disciple of a very strong expert and came out this time to seek experience'

"If so allow me to tell you some information about the King's City"

"Please"

"The King's City is the main city of the western region, a lot of experts who went there and of course including clans and powerful nobles"

"Their aim was to trade, to seek status for themselves as well as to compete with others and also the City of Kings was a military city"

"Having such a powerful army, it might even amount to a third of the Empire's strength and also according to rumors of being a threat to the Empire"

"In King City having ten Heavenly Monarchs, they each possess peak stage Martial Lord power and also serve as the guards of King City"

"Also they have a ranking, every year there will always be a change in rank to show how strong they are each and also for a status"

"For now a first ranker named Ji Hao, he was the strongest sword user in King City, also a son of the Emperor's concubine, was the youngest Martial Lord in the Ji Empire and had a rough temperament"

"Inconceited, also very happy to play around with the young girls, it is likely that the next few years will become a Martial King and return to the Empire"

Xu Tian nodded "Miss Mo has a great deal of knowledge, I think Miss Mo has some connection with the Heavenly Monarch right?"

Mo Xun simply smiled "Right, there is also a Heavenly Monarch from my Clan, also just call Xun"

"Alright Xun, you can continue"

"Ranked second named Shou Wei, came from the noble of the Shou Clan, the eldest son of the Shou Clan and also a rival of Ji Hao"

"Having a strong aura of hostility towards the Empire, also their Clan hated the Empire so much that it made three and made the Empire unable to move against their actions"

"The third ranker was named Hwang Li, originally from the Hwang Clan who had good relations with the Empire but was now quite bad and there was a possibility of a split"

"Hwang Li is very skilled in swordsmanship, he is also one of the strongest Sword Masters in the Ji Empire and also has a close relationship with Shou Wei"

"Fourth ranked named Mo Nai, originally from the Mo Clan which is my eldest brother, our Clan has been quite unfriendly to the Empire ever since the split between the Ji Clan and the Hwang Clan"

"The fifth rank is named Gu An, the origin is unknown because Gu An is a transfer from another Empire and also Gu An is a loner cultivator without many acquaintances"

"He became a Heavenly Monarch due to his above average abilities compared to the rest of the people and was the only Heavenly Monarch who did not come from the noble Clan"

"According to rumors Gu An came from the Qi Dynasty but had a conflict that resulted in Gu An then leaving the Qi Dynasty and heading to the Ji Dynasty"

"This Gu An has reached Martial Lord pinnacle yet is already on the threshold and will not long be ascending to the Martial King realm"

"For rank six to ten, they were from the King City owner that was the Ling Clan, the oldest were Ling Mi, Ling Di, Ling Fe, Ling Doyin and Ling Ja"

"The strength of each of them is a mystery, it has been decades their rank is still the same and there is no change except the rank of 1-5 which every year there is always a change"

"Also every year there will always be several challengers to seize the position of Heavenly Monarch and coincidentally the next few days are the scramble for the position of Heavenly Monarch"

"Also there will be an auction in King City, our destination to King City is also to attend the auction this time and there is also something we should buy there"

Xu Tian smiled then took out a grade-6 armor artifact "Xun, thanks for your very detailed explanation, this is my thank you gift"

Mo Xun was surprised by the artifact issued by Xu Tian even though it was only a grade-6 artifact yet it was an extremely rare and precious armor artifact possibly hundreds of thousands of lower-level crystals or thousands of tier crystals upon.

"Senior joked, I won't accept this gift either I just explained a few things to you and didn't deserve this kind of gift"

Xu Tian smiled "Xun take it, it's a gift from me and don't hesitate to accept it"

Mo Xun sighed "Senior is really our benefactor, we don't deserve this artifact but since senior forces then thank you"

Xu Tian nodded and then finally their journey towards King City would probably arrive.

'The objective this time has been set, becoming a Heavenly Monarch and also purchasing items from the auction that I might think are good'

"Oh yes Xun, do you know the grand prize of the auction this time around?"

Mo Xun nodded "Of course know senior, the main prize is a golden bone with an ancient text and according to rumors has a very pure Qi"

"Very helpful to those Martial King cultivators who want to break through the bottleneck and well our ancestors need it to break through"

Mo Xun chuckled, as if he had realized that he was talking too much to unintentionally talk about things he shouldn't have said.

It should be a secret, also the mission is very secret and very closed but before Xu Tian he answered everything innocently.

Xu Tian smiled "Xun you are so funny yet lucky to meet me, I won't listen to the torch a few minutes before and also very until careless next time"

Mo Xun nodded, he was a little embarrassed that Xu Tian noticed it and finally they then relaxed all the way.
